Okay. But I 100% understand why they're complainingQuote:
I don't know why you people keep complaining it was the same deal with Pier Solar and we got that game in the end and it was awesome.
Don't agree at all. If you sell something with a set release date and don't deliver then you get what you deserve.Quote:
These assets were probably frozen because some sad people complained with paypal. And because of these idiots everything has come to a grinding halt.
You've never worked with him...how would you know? But yes he does make awesome stuff.Quote:
Fonzie might not be the easiest to work with but he does make awesome stuff.
Nice generalisation there!Quote:
He sould have a policy of not selling to americans you all seem so spoiled and keep on complaining in the end you ruin it for everybody.
So what examples have you got then?Quote:
The 20 day rule is ridiculous. I often pay with paypal for preorders months in advance.
It wasn't exactly the same. The Magical Game Factory worked much better back then. Maybe the second highest genre voted by investors would have come out sooner than Pier Solar, as a shmup-war sim would have been more straightforward.Quote:

It's true that Fonzie also cut off contact with the rest of the dev team for weeks - months at a time. But the joystick tie-in was revealed much sooner.
To be fair, there are plenty of Americans who've been following this that haven't complained, and quite a few people from other countries that have. Not that there's anything wrong with that, their complaints are valid. This is a forum for discussion, if no information is given about the product for long periods of time people are going to gripe.
So the assets were frozen because people complained to paypal? Or because they didn't have the product ready when they said it would be?

have a nice one !
Fonzie would never have been able to make this game without you! I think we all know that!Quote:

Especially since he has collected people's money now (including mine, to the tune of nearly $200). I mean, yeah, I get it, PayPal sucks and I've had issues with them myself in the past. But even so, updates would be nice!
So... question for you and/or Tulio.Quote:

I'm not asking for you guys to slander him. I'm just curious about what the day-to-day operations are like between the WM team when creating something.
In my experience of working with him he became progressively more distant. We were asked to a sign an NDA (not forced) I still have mine somewhere.Quote:
